About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Internship in Berlin.

ABOUT ME

I just finished fifth year of university, the last year. And I have no idea of what will happen now. I just know that now is the moment for traveling, knowing new people, part time three month contract jobs, sleeping two hours some nights and twelve some others, learning useful things, like languages, but specially learning useless things.

I consider myself as open-minded and I think it's kind of easy to communicate with me. I enjoy meeting new friends and spending time with old ones. I like trekking, but not as sport, just as an excuse to see trees, watch animals, bathe in an ice-cold stream, share a cold sandwich or propose something stupid while waiting for the Sun to set.

I'm still young enough to trust and like humanity, but I already realize there are more than one or two attitudes we should start changing if we want our grandchildren to be able to enjoy a life as ours. That's why I bacame vegetarian and started cooking with organic and fair trade products when possible. It's a bit more expensive, but it's the REAL price of stuff. I know I should also give up traveling that much, but I'm really adicted to it...

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy while trying to make people around enjoy.
